I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 356

Carol continued to look down.

The manuscript sent by Mr. A this time has about [-] words.

At present, Carol has only read the beginning.

When she first got the manuscript, Carol was extremely excited and excited.

At this moment, as he started reading, Carol was already immersed in the plot of the story,

With the development of the plot, the emotions fluctuate, sometimes tense, and things are a little creepy.

This is probably a work with some horror elements and a weird style.

If he only saw the beginning, Carol would think that it might just be a story of a change in the protagonist.

The shadow disappeared, and sometimes the shadow would replace the protagonist Chang Mo.

But when Chang Mo went to the psychiatric hospital, the shadow of the doctor disappeared.

This story has changed again,

It turned out that this kind of change didn't just happen to Chang Mo, but also spread to many people at the same time.

What will happen to the world in that book?
Carol couldn't help divergent thinking,

Then continue to immerse yourself in the story and continue reading.

The further you read,
The plot becomes more and more weird and creepy, with a strong sense of absurdity and a strong style of magical realism.

Carol just kept watching in the office,

The expression on his face changed from time to time, tense from time to time, startled from time to time,
Sometimes the pupils contracted, and sometimes I reached out to touch the cup by the desk, but stopped again before my hand touched the cup.

During the whole process, Carroll never took his eyes off the computer screen,
I also don't want to get away from the manuscript of "Shadow Empire" displayed on the screen,

at last,

I saw that the sky outside the office window had already darkened,

Carol just read it carefully.

After a pause, Carol wanted to read it again from the beginning,
It's really unfinished, and I don't want to get away from the world in the book.

"Dong dong..."

Just at this time, there was a knock on the office door,

Carol, who had been immersed in the plot of "Empire of Shadows" before, was shocked.
After a pause, he raised his head.

"Editor Carol, have you read the manuscript sent by Mr. A?"

It was Lena who came into the office.

Lena cautiously pushed the offices away a little, and asked Carol softly.

At the same time, he looked at the computer screen in front of Carol with curiosity and expectation.

As a loyal reader of ABC, she is also a little itchy right now, and wants to read Mr. A's new book.

Just now, standing in front of Carol, she naturally saw the computer screen in front of Carol,
And Carol didn't seem to have the idea to ask her to read Mr. A's new book together.

"Looked at it briefly, but missed a lot of details. I'll revisit it later."

Carol nodded, then looked out of the office,
"Is everyone else off work?"

"Yes, I'm also going to leave work, so come and talk to Editor-in-Chief Carol."

Lina nodded and replied, her eyes still on the computer she couldn't see the screen.

"... Well, then you can get off work. I will stay here for a while."

"...This manuscript cannot be shown to you yet. Although you are also the editor of the publishing house, this book has not signed a formal publishing contract with Mr. A. Mr. A just sent it to me. This is my trust.

So I'm sorry, I have to keep it a secret for him for the time being, and I can't let others see the content of this work. "

Carol noticed Linna's gaze, and said to Linna with a smile.

Linna nodded, expressing her understanding, and then couldn't help asking with some expectation,

"Then Editor-in-Chief Carroll, how do you feel after reading Mr. A's work?"

"Of course it's very good. This is Mr. A's new work. What's the question?"

"I have a hunch that this is a great book by Mr. A, like "The Epic of the Empire", no, it may be even better than the "Epic of the Empire". Even if Mr. A's work is already so good, but every time It's amazing how Mr A seems to be improving!"

Carol first responded with a smile, and then exaggeratedly praised.

But he didn't feel that he was exaggerating at all, but he was ashamed of his lack of vocabulary and couldn't praise Mr. A's excellent new work.

But it’s right to think about it, Mr. A spent so many words writing such an excellent work,

Why do I simply summarize its excellence and greatness in a few words?

"...that's really exciting."

Linna's eyes showed some longing and more expectations,
What Carol said made her feel even more itchy, and she wanted to see Mr. A's works as soon as possible.

It's just obvious that Carol is more persistent here, and it is impossible to give her the manuscript of the work to read at this time.

With some regret,
Lina can only hope that the editor-in-chief Carol and Mr. A will reach an agreement on the publication of this new book as soon as possible.

Then this new book will be published as soon as possible, so that she can also read this work.

"Then I'll go first, Mr. Carroll."

"Go."

Lina turned and left the office.

Carol looked at it, then turned back, looking at the manuscript of "Shadow Empire" that had been scratched back to the beginning by him on the computer screen,
I was planning to watch it again.
But looking at the time in the lower right corner of the screen, it was already a bit late,
He thought it was better to reply to Mr. A first.

Mr. A cannot be kept waiting too long.

……

"...Auntie, it's a little itchy when you pinch me like this."

Magic City.

After typing, the hungry Ji Zhuo had already finished his dinner.

At this moment, Yun Qingmu and Yun Qingmu are already having a bone-setting massage at the traditional Chinese medicine shop they often go to.

Without pinching the shoulders, the two aunts were giving Ji Zhuo and Yun Qingmu a foot massage.

Yun Qingmu still breathed in pain, and from time to time it was a little itchy and she shrank her feet,

Ji Zhuo is different...he is fine, at most he grins his teeth when he touches certain acupoints.

"Ding dong..."

Ji Zhuo's cell phone message alert sounded.

Yun Qingmu raised her head and looked at Ji Zhuo. Ji Zhuo picked up the phone and looked at herself.

It was the message from Carol, and then noticed Yun Qingmu's gaze,

Well, Ji Zhuo put down the phone again,
It was too close to prevent Yun Qingmu from glancing at it, Ji Zhuo chose not to return for the time being.

"Ji Zhuo? What's wrong?"

"It's okay, news from the editor."

"Ding dong..."

"Ding dong..."

Carol sent several messages in a row,
Yun Qingmu looked at Ji Zhuo again, and tried to say cautiously,

"Ji Zhuo, why don't you come back once."

"For reminders, don't reply."

Hearing Ji Zhuo's words, Yun Qingmu fell into deep thought,
After being silent for a while, I choked out a word,

"So, Ji Zhuo, your new book..."

"Well... I'm writing."

Yun Qingmu fell into deep thought again.

……

"Carol: Mr. A, I have roughly read the manuscript you sent.

carol: Needless to say, this is an excellent, excellent work!
Carol: So Mr. A is still willing to hand over this excellent work to our publishing house for publication?

carol: Burt Publishing will, as always, do its best to publish your work.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Of course. "

I have finished pressing my feet, and I went back to my home,

Sitting on the sofa in the house, Ji Zhuo returned a message to Carol.

He has sent the manuscript to Burt Publishing House, so naturally he will hand over the book to Burt Publishing House for publication.

"Carol: Thank you, Mr. A, for your trust. It is an honor for our publisher.

Carol: We will do our best to make this excellent work return to its throne as soon as possible, so that more readers can read it!

Carol: ...By the way, Mr. A, do you have any remaining manuscripts...Well, it's just a private inquiry. As your reader, I'm really looking forward to the story behind "Empire of Shadows".

Clumsy and uncommon:..."
